Twenty years have passed since the murder of 6 year old JonBenet Ramsey. On December 26, 1996 Patsy Ramsey (JonBenet’s mother) called the police to tell her child was missing. The police arrived moments later and found a panicked family and family friends. Police told the Family to search the house top to bottom to find evidence. John Ramsey came back moments later with Jon’s dead body. Earlier that morning patsy had found a ransom note on the stairs. Which had police thinking there was an intruder who killed Jon. They also found a broken window that was halfway open and a briefcase which was going to be used to carry Jon's body. Recently A&E did a documentary on the case of Jon Ramsey where some experts got together to solve the case. They …show more content…

Then they tried to hang up the phone and most families would have stayed on until the police arrived. Then when the police arrived the Ramseys had invited friends over. That made Dna everywhere. The person who was left to stay with the family was a rookie and she told them to search the house from top to bottom to see if they could find something. John suspiciously went straight to the body. Reports claimed that John said he spotted the body before he even turned the light on in the basement. It would have been very dark down there and he would have just saw a blanket and could not have told if it was a body or not.
The family told their friends and neighbors not to talk to the police out of respect. Then they go and do a interview on Cnn. They also had some inconsistencies with what they said during the interview. Like they said they were cooperating with the police. The police said they wouldn't let them search the house or do interviews with them. The police also would not interview the 911 operator who could have turned the whole case around. Also they said Burke was asleep when he was right next to them when they called the operator. Then they said they assumed he was sleep later

With the new technology, we have today DNA can be taken and tested in a couple days of a crime, it is also very reliable. Not to mention all the pressure put on the parents of the family, finding DNA other than their families was a relief. The DNA found led police away from the family, CNN Library stated,“Early suspicion fell on her parents, but they were exonerated after DNA at the scene was found to belong to a male unrelated to the Ramsey family,” ("JonBenet Ramsey").

    Also, the handwriting was found to definitely not be his. As for the raping the object that was used was said to be very small; like the size of the end of a paintbrush (which was never found). Therefore I don’t think John murdered Jonbenet. Evaluation - Burke Ramsey: I don’t think Burke committed the crime either. Even though his behavior was odd.

    The fracture on her skull matched the width of the flashlight, so it may be conceivable that he could have accidentally killed his sister. This theory however, is somewhat disbelievable since the strangulation JonBenét endured was proven to have been done while she was alive. John Ramsey, although ruled out as the author of the ransom note, is also considered by some to be the killer, as the media sought for cover stories and an ending to the story for sensation. The entire Ramsey family was publicly exonerated in 2008 by the Boulder County district, which faced controversy. As well as JonBenét’s family, came many other

    John Ramsey never liked the fact that she got entered into beauty pageants. JonBenet’s body, found with signs that show sexual assault, shows the possibility that her father took her into the basement, sexually assaulted her, and then killed her. Then he’d have left the ransom note to draw attention away from. Most of the evidence points directly to him for only the family had known they had a basement where JonBenet died. John Ramsey told the cops that he didn’t hear anything that night.

    One of very first mistakes the Department made was that they did not search the house very thoroughly, nor did put the house on secure the home and the evidence within the home after the first arrived on the sense. The Police department should have made sure that nobody enter the home, nor left the Ramsey home, before they had the opportunity to search it, and question everyone in the home at the time of the event. With no doubt if the police would have searched the house when they first arrived on the sense, they would have found JonBenet in the cellar of the basement in the Ramsey home wrapped in a blanket. Allowing John Ramsey and a close friend to search the house for missing house hold items, and that allowed him to find his deceased daughter.

    When John Ramsey and his neighbor Fleet White went around the area to see if JonBenet was hiding somewhere, the first place John went was straight to the basement. Which just so happened to be where JonBenet’s body was found, so that right there raised a huge red flag. The reason for that was because by the time Mr. Ramsey had gone downstairs to the basement, it had been a few hours from when everything had started and mysteriously he knew exactly where she would be in the basement? The biggest part of it all was after Mr. Ramsey had found JonBenet, instead of calling for the detectives who were all over his home; he immediately picked JonBenet off the ground and took the duct tape off her mouth. After John Ramsey touched JonBenet, that entire murder scene was now tampered with which makes anything that was found inaccurate seeing how there is now other fingerprints on the body.

    Based on my research, I have come a conclusion that Burke, John, and Patsy Ramsey played apart in JonBenet’s murder. Burke Ramsey, JonBenet’s brother who was inside the residence after returning home with his parents from Christmas dinner with friends, may have accidentally knocked his sister JonBenet Ramsey unconscious over the head with a flashlight during a feud over a bowl of pineapples. (Augenstein, 2016) Burke was not asleep upon returning home as John and Patsy reported to the Boulder’s Detectives. Boulder’s Detectives noticed in the kitchen during their investigation a flashlight on the counter top possibly a weapon used to strike JonBenet in the head.
